Need experienced advice

I have a 50 gal glass terrarium holding 2 yearling BCI's. I was wondering if the Habba Mist Machine was a little excessive to use in it or do you think it would be OK. Also I was thinking about switching from heat lights to some other heat source, if you have any suggestions on the best thing to use I would appriciate it.Thanks

i think that is a good idea but you should see how much humidy is in the cage because the mister would raise the humidy some. so do make the tank have to much humidy.

Getting rid of the lights is an excellent choice. They dry out the cage alot. Second getting a humidity guage would be a good investment because you dont really know what it is in there.. Also you can cover part of the lid with lexan to conserve moisture...

For heating you would want to invest in flexwatt heat tape nothing compares to it in my oppion. Or you could go with an under the tank heat pad. You may want to separate the snakes the only time I put them together is during breeding. It can be very stressful and could be harmful too. I have read that one could be intimadated by the other at some point and refuse to feed. Also during feeding on could be attacked by the other one. I don't know if they will attack for sure cause I cage seperatly but they do have a heavy feeding response. Also they will get to big for both of them in the one cage. I would do as Matt said and if the humidity stays up pretty good I would just mist with a water bottle. If you don't watch the humidity it could get to wet and they could develop belly rot. Hope this helps Tommy D.
